Pics of Ian Storys Nova

[Benn]

As above, few years back i saw it all painted with the wide arches, but i never saw it any more of finished..

Any one have pics of it?

[MARTIN KELSON]

It was at 'BAT Motorsport' for years i believe.

No idea what ever happened to it, or if it ever saw the light of day again.

[fearless]

I have a few when the body kit and cage were being fitted but none when it was finished

I remember seeing some of it almost finished - painted blue with big white wheels sat in BAT's showroom - but didn't save the pics :(

[draper]

is this the blue one with (iirc corsa) F2 arches ?

used to be in the old premium member forum of novaload ???

[fearless]

Yep

I think the last conversion he did was fit an Auto Gearbox :)

(Those with good memories will know what I mean :)

[draper]

foot op ? can remember it was the time of life i wasnt working and spent my days skulking round here (hence 13k posts and not a sniff of a decent spec'd nova lol)

[Benn]

I remember seeing it painted blue... But that was all.. Just wondered if it got finished or anything..

[Connor]

Anyone got any pictures of it, sounds intriguing :)

[dan16v]

lol auto box, does Ian still even own a foot?! did see the last pics at BAT but that was it years ago, been out even less than my car

[krobinson]

Haven't spoken to Ian in ages! Surely the car still exists?

[Pistol Pete]

I remember this from years ago. Was mag featured (cant remember which) IIRC. Gagged on MIGweb isnt he Benn??

[db_1.2]

Can somebody please give me a clue? Sounds interesting

[Pistol Pete]

Google has fook all. It does exist, honest guv lol

^ That was his previous Nova - C20XE on TBS

Think it was broke down to provide bits for his new nova

[Pistol Pete]

Oh. lol Really??

Well, i never!

[Lee]

He still owns it, and afaik he wants to finish it, but he's having all sorts of grief with his foot still.

[Pistol Pete]

What? In his mouth?? Is that why he is gagged on MIGweb??

[Bubba]

same wheels as my old ones...guy has taste lol

i rather like that...even kitted :/

[Benn]

Yeah he was gagged on Mig,

Db, full wide arch kit, bumper sand everything. Sadly never finished.

I saw Ian at PV 08 he was walking on crushes then.

Some one must have the pics saved, cant just be me that saves everything.

[novacabrio]

I still have some pictures Ian sent me, I will see if he mind sme posting them... Will stick this link on his facebook!

iirc that one hit the back of a 7 series!

[Rick Draper]

I am sure the last time i spoke to Ian he was thinking of breaking it. He was still having problems with his club foot.

[fearless]

This is the last picture Ian sent me - He seemed quite happy with his latest modification lol

[Ian]

Post them up mark saves me digging them up, it's still in bat, not been touched for years, much like fearless' car lol

Does that exist still?

ive had 3 ops in 4 years on my feet/legs and may need a 4th and final one next year, but will see how it goes.

iirc it just needed seats, alarming and mapping.

[Connor]

[fearless]

Welcome back Ian - Glad to hear you've still got the nova - It will probably see the road long before mine :)

Bad news about the leg - I would have thought they would have cut it off by now LOL

[Bubba]

im liking the dash...and the cage :p

[John]

Love it! I remember chatting to you about your car when you came to the bruntingthorpe day when you came with Rick. Looks better in the pics than you described it! lol

[MARTIN KELSON]

What is that cage Ian?

Always fancied doing the interior & bay of mine grey. Reminds me of race cars!!

Will it ever get done & turn a wheel under its own steam?

[Dan]

shame they ran out of blue and left the engine bay and inside in primer ;) :p

Long overdue a catch up, expect your phone to ring tomorrow :thumb:

[Mike]

Always fancied doing the interior & bay of mine grey. Reminds me of race cars!!

Best thing I ever did to my Corsa, albeit it satin black, only drawback is it gets very warm in the summer :( soon cured with a 12v blower setup though lol

[Ian]

at least its just the inside in primer dan :p

It's a custom cages one Martin.

[Mike]

Ha Ha, Is France making them?

Heard theres a long wait on these at the moment!!!! :)

[fearless]

Unfortunately - the moulds got damaged in a freak accident so only one set was made - and as the quality is'nt upto my usual standard, the only set in existance will have to go on my scruffy/rusty/unfinished project car,as they are the only mirrors I have :(

Look - there not even finished (Just like my other project lol )
